WARNING
To avoid the risk of fire or personal injury, all minimum
and maximum specified clearances on this and the
following pages must be maintained or exceeded.
General Considerations
The minimum distance from the back of the cooktop •
to a combustible rear wall is 2 1/2” (64 mm) minimum
(Figure 1).
Installation of a non-combustible material* (up to the •
hood) or a backsplash is always recommended, and
mandatory if the distance to the back wall from the
cooktop is less than 2 1/2” (Figure 2). When installing a
backguard, use only Dacor model numbers AEB3609,
AEB3612 (EG366), AEB4809 or AEB4812 (EG486).
* Consult local codes and ordinances for acceptable
non-combustible materials.
FIGURE 1
FIGURE 2
Carefully check the location where the cooktop is to be •
installed. For best performance, the cooktop should be
installed away from drafts caused by doors, windows
and heating and air conditioning outlets. To reduce the
risk of personal injury from reaching over a hot appliance, avoid cabinet installations directly above.
To reduce the risk of personal injury and to reduce •
accumulated smoke in the room, Dacor strongly recommends installing a range hood. A hood should project
horizontally a minimum of five (5) inches beyond the
face of the cabinets.
The installation must allow access to the underside •
of the cooktop for service and inspection purposes,
including the ability to turn off the cooktop gas supply
valve and electrical outlet.
All contact surfaces between the cooktop and the coun-•
ter must be solid and level.
The countertop overhang on the sides of the cutout •
shown on the following pages covers the recessed portions of the cooktop behind the control panel and creates a seamless look for the installation.
IMPORTANT: •When installing the cooktop into a lami-
nated or synthetic countertop, radius the corners of the
cutout to help avoid cracking. Consult the countertop
manufacturer’s instructions for minimum corner radius,
reinforcement and heat protection requirements.
For installations with a raised vent, install this appliance •
only with the approved Dacor raised vent models listed
on page 6.
Gas and Electric Service Location
The gas supply piping, gas shut-off valve and the elec-•
trical outlet must be located so they do not interfere
with the cooktop when it is installed. If installing another
appliance in the cabinet below, allow for the routing of
gas and electrical service out the back of the unit.
The shaded area on the facing page shows the rec-•
ommended location of the gas inlet and the electrical
outlet. For replacement purposes, the location of the
existing utilities may be utilized provided they do not
interfere with the sides or rear of the cooktop. Check
local building codes for permissible utility locations.
For best performance and to minimize gas pressure •
loss, attach the gas supply regulator as close as possible to the cooktop gas inlet.
The installation must:
Allow for access to the gas shut-off valve and regulator •
when the unit is installed.
Allow for access to the electrical outlet, when the •
cooktop is in place so that the power cord may be easily disconnected if the unit needs service.
Allow for connection of the (32”) power cord to the •
electrical outlet.
If a raised vent is to be installed, allow for access to the •
gas supply valve and electrical outlet when the raised
vent is in place.
